velvet bow~

I've been experimenting with my style more as of late. This look was the result of not teasing my hair, wearing only a touch of makeup, and 'grunging' up my style as I felt comfortable. My inspiration folders are all over the map with the classic lace dress combo that I'm known for along with flecks of ripped tights, sheer blouses, etc. While I'm not entirely comfortable with the latter on myself, this is my take on the grunge look. You can't see it (I didn't do the best job photographing this outfit), but the back of the leotard is a low scoop and goes just down to my shoulder blades-- how scandalous!

lol at my super-intense wide-eyed stare. O_O

velvet leotard: forever21
tights: unknown (Charlotte Russe?)
boots: Kohls
velvet bow: vintage bow tie

  3. I am loving the new look on you! The velvet, lace and boots, it's a fab combo :) I am also in the mood to mix up my style just a little bit, I think when you do it means you appreciate your super girlie dresses even more the next time you wear them x

  4. I really like your take on the grunge look. You pull it off well. The patterned tights are lovely with the shorts and boots. I love tops with dramatic backs, scandalous or not, they are fun :]

  14. I don't think you could look badly even if you tried! Even in this departure from your usual style you manage to make things soft and feminine still. You look beautiful as always Amber <3
